In case you haven't heard, some talented illustrators have been getting together and chatting about the sci-fi/ fantasy illustration industry in a series of entertaining and informative podcasts. So far there are only 3, but they are well worth the listen.
This is the blurb from their site http://ninjamountain.blogspot.com/:
Episode1:
This episode features Jeremy, Jon and Patrick as they discuss their first freelance jobs, how to get started as a freelancer (and how not to), art school, Applebee's, space boobs, and anything else that comes to mind. Get ready for an hour of art talk!
Episode 2:
This week, Andy Hepworth joins Jon, Jer, and Patrick, as the ninjas discuss portfolios, getting work, convention networking, and even a bit of art talk as they debate the merits of ArtRage, the digital painting program.
Episode 3:
It's the usual group of guys (Andy, Jeremy, Jon and Patrick), tackling the big subject of what they broadly call "client relations": working out contracts, getting paid, "exposure deals" and other scary stuff. They also discuss the best method of figuring just how much you should get paid for a job.

Hi Nicole! Thanks a lot for the great review. :) It means a lot to know people are enjoying the podcast (since it doesn't make any, you know, money or anything!)
Thanks for this post! I definitely enjoyed the podcasts and would have never found them otherwise. I'm slowing getting through the rest of your posts, there is a lot of great content for the artist and art lover. Keep up the great work!
